Boeing used and uses Farnborough for low speed plus others. The point is to use wind tunnels over and over again to get to know their characteristics. Over time you can compare the results between your other programs. It doesn't matter if a company owns everything. Low speed is the most complex part and - like noise - one of the hardest to simulate in the computer. Big manufacturers test globally in wind tunnels.
